Klinger Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 A personal account. Fly around for a bit. Fire some rockets. Drop some bombs. Unsuccessfully defend a mate. (Gutted about this one.) Bounced by Spit. Missing a few non essential parts, run for red airfield. Consider myself lucky. I've got a trakfile of the last 20 mins of SE if anyone wants it. Quote
Shadow Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 An eventful mission. And you lived to tell the tale Well done, sir!! Quote
Cold_Gambler Posted March 27, 2007 Posted March 27, 2007 No worries, Klinger. I'm to blame as well for having gone in like a cowboy... Didn't realize that you were so close to clearing him off my tail. Nice shot of two cannon rounds going off right on me there Quote
1. DDz Quorum Painless Posted March 28, 2007 1. DDz Quorum Posted March 28, 2007 ~S~ Kling, looks like you had a bloody good sortie M8. Only seconds away from clearing CGs six... bad luck. ~S~ Painless Quote
GreyKnight Posted March 28, 2007 Posted March 28, 2007 Very nice pics Klinger. On that first one, is that a custom image on your P-47, or a proper squadron badge? p.s. Regarding you sig, I've heard a variation... "Got all the kit, load of shit." Quote
Klinger Posted March 28, 2007 Author Posted March 28, 2007 Thats the Flak Pole nose art, comes with the 46 DVD. I don't usually bother with custom stuff and always fly with skin downloads off. Although thats the best SEOW mission I've had, the pics make it look better than it really was. A more accurate description would be, 45 mins of scratching my genitals, 5 mins of knee-jerk reactions, 10 mins of running like a girl for St. Paul airfield. I was lucky 'Black 1' must have run out of ammo, and that Republic made such a tough plane! Quote
GreyKnight Posted March 28, 2007 Posted March 28, 2007 I saw a poll on the official forums on what players thought was the toughest crate in the game. Most picked the P-47. I haven't flown it much at all, so what do all you SEOW vets think of it? Quote
Rattler Posted March 29, 2007 Posted March 29, 2007 Here's my version... (pardon the resolution: I resized the pics afterwards, and they degraded a bit) 1 Spitfire wing (sort of...) [attachthumb=1] Tally-ho on a single AI Tempest... [attachthumb=2] Go get the bastard... [attachthumb=3] ...good-bye elevator... [attachthumb=4] ...going down, smoking. [attachthumb=5] Next up: multiple bandits - here comes the 352nd... [attachthumb=6] Vertical downward scissors (just before partial disconnect...) [attachthumb=7] Dave and I pair up: an odd pair - P-47D and Spit IXc...but it worked! [attachthumb=8] He couldn't run, or turn! [attachthumb=9] Quote
Rattler Posted March 29, 2007 Posted March 29, 2007 My version, part deux... Dave and I catch sight of a smoker.. [attachthumb=1] BG and his AI wingie join us... [attachthumb=2] Parts go flying off... [attachthumb=3] He stalls out in front of me... [attachthumb=4] Daisy chain of death... [attachthumb=5] Rex loses his controls and bails out... [attachthumb=6] BG ensures that Rex is actually dead and blows his wing off... He then returns to base, steals candy from a baby, and drinks my scotch! [attachthumb=7] Safely returned to base, -E settles onto final. 1st round's on me! [attachthumb=8] Quote
delta7 Posted March 29, 2007 Posted March 29, 2007 sweeeeeeeeet rattler - we did do well together , I dragged and you bagged very nicely for the first and we all teamed up for the second , he couldnt get away from us. Quote
GreyKnight Posted March 29, 2007 Posted March 29, 2007 @ Rattler - Nice pix and storyline. Our very first DDz comic? Who's going to play Ginger? Quote
DD_Bucky Posted March 29, 2007 Posted March 29, 2007 Good stuff Klinger.Wouldn,t mind having a look at that trk.file. Quote
Klinger Posted March 29, 2007 Author Posted March 29, 2007 Good mission Rattler ~S~ I only recorded the last 20 mins of SEOW, as from my point of view, nothing happened till then. (selfish b'stard!) My track is here, Quote
Rattler Posted March 29, 2007 Posted March 29, 2007 But those Spits and Tempests with Luftwaffe markings spoilt my morning cup of tea! Quote
